Density functional theory (DFT) is used to investigate the adsorption properties of nitrogen on the pentagon at the tip of a capped (5, 5) single-walled carbon nanotube. The adsorption of N(2) outside the carbon nanotube with a parallel orientation with respect to the plane of the pentagon is found to be the most stab…

Contrary to the common belief that a glassy state is stable against crystallization, Oguni and co-workers discovered unusual enhancement of the crystal growth rate of a few molecular liquids below the glass transition temperature ${T}_{g}$. We studied this phenomenon using $o$-terphenyl (OTP) and phenyl salicylate (sa…
